La Casita is located on 2.3 secluded acres adjacent to the Coronado National Forest. The cosy house has a private natural ambiance, and a peaceful garden to relax in. Wild life and birds abound and the hiking trail head to Mt. Lemmon is just 5 minutes walk from the house. These features are what make the stay at La Casita so special and enjoyable.

The house is surrounded by oak trees and native desert plants, it has a quiet, natural, atmosphere. Being adjacent to the National Forest wild life such as deer, javelinas, coyotes, bob cats, skunks, rabbits, and many types of birds can be seen often on the property.
The house and garden are ideal for individuals or couples wanting a secluded, private environment to relax and revive in. Also it is excellent as a retreat or for concentrated work, there is excellent wifi.
The rustic, 50 year old cottage of 750 sq. feet is furnished with many antiques from my family and original art. The house offers all that guests need to feel comfortable. There are sleeping arrangements for 4 persons, a double bed, and also a fold out couch that makes into a double bed. The screened-in porch provides an extra sitting area in the warmer months. A small but well equipped kitchen is perfect for cooking simple meals at home.
The office area and a large table in the living room have comfortable office chairs and make great working areas for computer related or clean activities. Besides having great wifi, the house is LOW tech, there is a simple radio that receives NPR, and local stations, there is no TV.
The beautiful garden and areas that surround the house are an important feature of La Casita. There are different sitting spaces that offer shade or sun and different views, they are perfect for eating and relaxing outside while watching the birds, or looking out at the Catalina Mountain foothills. Gorgeous sunsets can be seen from the house and at night the dark skies are perfect for stargazing.
Upon Your Arrival
You will be greeted by Chuck the care-taker who will give you the key, help you get settled, and answer any questions. The house is then yours to enjoy undisturbed on your own.

La Casita is located in the community of Oracle on the north sloops of the Catalina Mountains at 4800 ft. It is considered a High Desert eco system with its own unique combination of plant and animal species.
Oracle is a cute little town, with many interesting and fun things to offer. There are several restaurants on American Avenue the main street. My favorites are the Patio Café for a really tasty breakfast or lunch and Rivera’s Mexican food, which has FABULOUS fish tacos on Fridays. The Oracle Inn is fun for a Friday or Saturday night, they often have live music and serve a good steak.
The historic Arcadia Ranch Society is an interesting place to visit, it provides a unique view of the early frontier days of the area. If you like to explore a great vintage shop, be sure to visit The Ranch Store. They also offer on wednesday evenings the Farmer's Market with food and music, always a lot of fun. There is also the Oracle Post Office and Library.
For general needs there is the Family General Store, but for food shopping the closest large grocery store and pharmacy is in Catalina about 20 min south of Oracle on the road to Tucson.

A wonderful experience all around, stunning location, lovely cabin.

I loved staying at Kathy's place! I wanted to get away from the city to study and get some work done for my upcoming board exam. Her place is breathtaking! I was able to enjoy myself and study without distractions. My dog came with me as well, the house is very dog friendly and her property was so fun for him to explore! I am excited and cannot wait to go back!

Zoe2016-04-30T00:00:00Z

Charming! Peaceful! Relaxing! The cabin is well appointed, tidy and artistic. Communication was a breeze. Would love to return.

Janet 2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

My husband and I and our little dog loved staying at Kathy's Casita. We stayed 3 nights and felt fully recharged upon coming home. The energy of the Casita is quiet and rejuvenating. We loved hiking the Oracle Ridge Trail and eating at the Oracle Patio Cafe!

Brandie2015-12-21T00:00:00Z

La Casita is the perfect place for anyone wanting to stay off the beaten path of Tuscon. Favorite activity aside from the early morning birding is the nap taken on the canopied swing bed in the light breeze of the patio.

Kara2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing time. You place is perfect for 1 or 2 people who just want to be able to get away from the clutter and bustle. We really enjoyed the copious outdoor seating and the closeness to the hiking trail.

Oh my gosh! What an amazing get away experience. Kathy and Chuck were both excellent to communicate with. We met Chuck once we got into town and he was very hospitable. This cozy cottage is very quiet and private. We spotted a lot of nature including a doe and two fawns as well as lizards and quails. We really did not want to leave.

This charming country home provides panoramic mountain views. You can enjoy setting on the porch with a glass of wine watching sunsets or stargazing. The house is located in a serene ranch-like setting with rolling hills. Often we will see a herd of deer, open-range cattle grazing in the area, and numerous birds and other wildlife. Come to unwind and gather with family and friends in this beautiful setting. Golfing is only 5 minutes away, and many other attractions are 25 minutes away.

Pets are negotiable. Location is in an open desert without any fencing. Call for details.

The neighborhood has 12 custom homes in the area. Everyone is friendly and on acreage which gives the feel of a secluded retreat setting.

Very comfortable, beautiful views.

Lula2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

If I ever am around Tucson again, I will definitely try to stay here again.

Wannes2017-04-08T00:00:00Z

The house is well situated with the panoramic view of the Catalina mountains in the distance and the valley below. The mornings and sunrises are the most awe-inspiring vistas. We also witness the dessert full moon scape. We wish that we could have stayed longer. The house is a country ranch home, simply lovely in the dessert setting. The bedrooms are well appointed. The bathroom in the master suite is spacious and comfortable. There are plenty of dessert wild life around the property. When you decide to visit the desert and still close to the amenities offer by the Oro Valley communities and Catalina mountain area, this house is a must stay. There are Saddlebrook recreation area when there are lots to offer.

Gregory2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

A cozy little getaway up on Mt. Lemmon. A good place to escape the heat, visit the snow, or for a romantic getaway with someone special. Ideal for a couple but it can accommodate a small family with the sofa bed.

This is the lower unit in an up and down duplex. It has a main bedroom, and a hide-a-bed in the living room.

Darby's place was very quiet and scenic, even though it's located about 1/2 mile from restaurants and shops. There was a creek and we could hear the water flowing all night. We stayed there to watch the annual Pleides meteor shower and it was nice to spread out a blanket on the deck and stare up at the sky! The cabin itself is rustic but has everything you need. The furniture and bed are very comfortable. We plan to go back in the near future and stay longer!

This was an awesome rental in a beautiful place. Rental description was accurate, house was clean and well-equipped. Very peaceful neighborhood with walking/hiking right out the back door. Melissa was a great host, very accommodating. Private backyard with lots of plantings and birds.

wendy2016-04-08T00:00:00Z

The house was beautiful. I come to Tucson every year to buy at the gem show and this year I was joined by my son and his family - two children 2 and 5 months old. The house was very comfortable and furnished with everything we needed. Melissa was always available when we had questions. If you want to experience the Arizona mountains in a beautiful and comfortable home, this is the place for you.

Sharron2016-02-01T00:00:00Z

We had an awesome time staying at the Catalina Desert Retreat. The views from the back terrace and pool are stunning. We had our morning coffee on the terrace watching the wildlife. We especially enjoyed the little birds who have made their home in the cactus!! The pool was really refreshing and we certainly made the most of it in the hot weather. The hot tub is a great place to sit and enjoy the night sky. Wendy & Dan were most helpful and even dropped us round some organic vegetables that they had grown. We would love to stay here again and cant recommend it enough!!

alison2016-05-14T00:00:00Z

Melissa's home is beautifully laid out in a very quiet area near Saddlebrook and Oracle. Convenient to Tucson but also far enough outside the city to be able to see beautiful stars at night and scenic views of the Catalina's during the day. Awesome place!

We had a wonderful stay at Melissa's desert retreat! The house was impeccably clean, in a beautiful location looking out on the mountains. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub as well. Melissa was flexible with my arrival time (a little earlier than planned), and everything was exactly as described. The house is about 45 minutes from downtown Tucson, but was perfect for our desert getaway! Thanks, Melissa!

Our guest room, sleeping 2 in a comfortable queen bed with private bath, offers access to the beautiful, very active Saddlebrooke community, with golfing, tennis courts, multiple pools and spas and the great outdoors for walking, biking and hiking.

We are located in the beautiful Saddlebrooke community at the base of the Santa Catalina mountains in Tucson, AZ, only 8 miles south of the Biosphere 2.

We live in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood where we know the neighbors. We are 1/2 mile away from the MountainView Country Club and Gold course. We have a view of the Santa Catalina mountains in front and a wild hill behind that abounds with wildlife.

Had a wonderful stay with Karen and Larry as I was in town for a family visit. The accommodations were quite nice. The bed was very comfortable. Karen and Larry made me feel right at home in their lovely Casa. I enjoyed our morning chats over coffee. A lovely couple and a great place to stay!

Linda2017-03-10T00:00:00Z

Karen and Larry are very engaging and want to share their love of the Saddlebrooke community and the surrounding area. We were visiting from Seattle and this was our first stop in our quest to visit multiple 55+ communities. Karen and Larry prepared a delicious breakfast for us each morning and made us feel very welcomed. We had our own bedroom and bath and the bed was very comfortable. They live in the middle of Saddlebrooke so it was easy to explore the surrounding neighborhoods. We learned a lot about "living" in Arizona and shared personal stories with Karen and John - which we enjoyed very much. We feel like we have new friends. We highly recommend staying at their home if you are in the Tucson area.

Excellent space for a minimalistic couple or a small family. The bedroom has a Queen sized Murphy bed. The futon in the living room can be flattened into a bed for young children.

What isn't there to LOVE about Mt. Lemmon?
We are surrounded by nature.
This is the perfect 'beat the heat' destination if you're fleeing the hot desert in the Summer.
This is also the perfect 'do you wanna build a snowman' destination in the Winter.
This is also the perfect destination for avid cyclists wanting to train year round in mountain air.
If you step out of the house in any direction, you have Cookie Cabin and The Living Rainbow store to one side, and the General Store and Sawmill Run restaurant on the other side across the street.
There are few places that can tout, LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION...like this one.

Home sits on quiet hill with East, West and South Mountain views on the North Side of Catalina Mountains foothills, 22 miles North of downtown Tucson, off Oracle Rd near Oro Valley. Tranquil water feature & fire pit in rear. Great Outdoor kitchen & living space. Gourmet Kitchen in home. Internet TV's/No Cable.

The views of sunrise and sunset and the thousands of bright stars to view while sitting around the natural gas fire pit & fountain.
Neighborhood is quiet with tranquility. Many hills to walk and view scenery. Great cycling & hiking area.

Kathleen's home is just lovely, and she's informed and passionate about life in Tucson. If you're new to Tucson or visiting for the first time, you couldn't ask for a better guide to Tucson, the Sonoran desert, or the attractions of greater Arizona. Keep in mind that her home is about 20 miles from central Tucson; it's an easy drive down Oracle Road, but distances in the desert are different than in other major metropolitan areas, and you'll want to be prepared (a reliable car is a must, and you'll want to carry water, sunscreen, and comfortable shoes with you at all times). That said, I really enjoyed Tucson's "laid back" vibe, the stark beauty of the Sonoran desert, and, yes, even the June heat.

Kathleen was a wonderful hostess - friendly, kind and easy to contact. The house was decked out in Christmas cheer and we felt very comfortable.

Our space was very nice and the bed was so comfy! We enjoyed the front patio for our morning coffee watching the sunrise and the large back patio for evenings. We used the great outdoor kitchen to prepare dinner and the gas fire pit to ward off the chill in the evenings. The star gazing was great and we enjoyed seeing wildlife just beyond the enclosed patio; deer, rabbits, quail, cactus wrens and numerous other birds. It's a little further from the city than some might prefer but the slightly cooler temps on hot days is a plus! There was plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby and suited us fine! We went on day trips to tons of great hiking locations! Loved it and would highly recommend staying here! Thank you for your hospitality!

My place is close to Catalina State Park, Mt. Lemmon, Biosphere 2, hiking, mountain biking, dining and shopping, and Tucson area attractions and nightlife . There's plenty of space for groups of up to six people. You'll experience beautiful desert sunsets and expansive 360-degree views from the top of a hill overlooking the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Oro Valley area of North Tucson. Great for couples, business travelers, families with kids, and groups.

Relax in this home with a spacious, open floor plan that includes two living areas, a dining room, and well-appointed kitchen with an island and counter seating. There are three bedrooms, two with queen beds (one is an air mattress on a frame) and a master bedroom with a king bed and large soaking tub in the master bath. The sectional in the living room is large enough to serve as an extra sleep space, and an additional twin-size air mattress can be provided upon request.

This home is located in a peaceful hillside community looking out over the mountains surrounding Tucson and Oro Valley. Watch families of quail, bunnies, lizards, roadrunners, and the occasional bobcat roam through the desert landscape.

Wonderful house on a quiet hill. Not far from town but not too close. Nice 2 mile run to the edge of Catalina Park. Great place for a small group/family. Gracious host.

Easy house to share if your traveling with others.

This was my second stay at the house and it felt like coming home! I will definitely consider staying here again if traveling to the Tucson area.

The host, Pamela, is friendly, attentive and helpful. I highly recommend it!

A wonderful spot for one or two adults. Writers, birdwatchers, hikers, mountain bikers...lovers of wilderness and seekers of the Spirit of the land.
PLEASE NOTE: Individuals planning to attend Sierra Tucson Family Program, please book alternate Airbnb.
Thanks!

Down quiet dirt road...a bit bumpy in places so drive slowly. Direct access to
walking trails in Catalina Regional Park and short walk or drive to mountain bike and hiking trails.

Meira is a very gracious host with an open heart and a very welcoming space. She will sit in conversation and also is honouring of any needs, including private time, that you may have. I felt a deep sense of retreat and rest in the one night that I stayed in her very comfortable accommodations. I would stay there again and recommend her place to everyone!

Cozy home with all the basics, nestled under the mountains. Short drive to hiking and easy to get to the city.

For people seeking solitude and a desert experience, this is a great find. Meira was a wonderful host and the setting and animal life right by the room were terrific.

The place is very nice, clean and cozy, nice nature surroundings. Great especially if you don't want to be in city too much. Meira was a great host, easy to organize with and very friendly. Would stay again if I'm in Tucson, thank you :)

Beautiful spot, It is nice to wake up with the prairie dog and the wild quails in the window. The studio was perfectly equipped and clean, Shower was great. Meira was very nice, she showed us her horses and burros...

I really enjoyed my stay. First, I must confess, I am a city girl and slightly neurotic most days. Second, I only live 18 minutes away from this destination but in a busy master plan community. So when I turned onto the dirt road to get to Meira's place, I thought, 'oh dear what have I gotten myself into?' I opened the door to Meira's private room & bath and the peace and quiet gently welcomed me. It was just the setting that I needed. A hide-a-way like her profile suggests. Meira made it feel so warm and homey inside. The bathroom was spotless, as well as the small fridge and microwave that were in the room. Meira provides all the essenrials. The bed is very soft, so if you prefer a firm mattress, this one may not appeal to you. I enjoyed waking up to the sound of all the birds singing in the morning. I could also hear her horse and mule in the morning. I didn't venture out much as I needed to isolate myself in order to get some much needed papwork done! It was the perfect quiet setting I needed to stay focus. Moreover, her room had a table and two chairs for me to spread everything out on. I did not want to leave and did manage to stay an additional night! Thanks Meira!

Meira was very welcoming and accommodating. Having the private entrance, the bathroom and the small kitchen accommodations were just what I needed.Plus the price was right. I'm so glad decided on Meira's place.

Great AirBnB if you are an outdoors person or an animal lover. Nestled in the foothills of the Santa Catalina mountains with breathtaking views about 30min north of Tuscon, you will definitely get a taste of the Sonoran Deseret from hummingbirds to coyotes. Meira also has a horse, donkeys, and a beautiful dog! She was a great host and we had good communication and had no problem with us extending our stay an extra night. She also has a book in the room with activities and great places to eat that she put together that was very helpful and a nice touch. The room was very clean and the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in at an AirBnB!(maybe ever, seriously if you can't fall asleep in that bed I don't know what to tell you) I highly recommend this AirBnB to anyone looking to stay in the Tuscon area especially if you enjoy nature. Best room I've stayed in for the price as well!

Fantastic get away in the Arizona desert, by beautiful Catalina state Park. You can not get closer to nature than this. Beautifully remodeled home, with a large porch. Just a short jog to state park and a 10 minute drive to movie theaters, shopping and restaurants. Please reference driving directions as this home is located in a dirt road and some Gps might guide you to the wrong location.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Chris's home on Agapanthus Street, Oro Valley. The home is very clean and comfortable. The kitchen is spacious with good appliances and all the essential equipment one needs to prepare meals. The master bedroom and bath were great with a very comfortable bed. We didn't use the guest bedroom but it looked very nice also. The decor of the house is very tasteful. There is a pleasant patio and backyard with a good grill. We enjoyed all the birds that appear in the backyard on a regular basis! We appreciated being close to the Catalina State Park as well as being close to The Views Golf Course which is part of the Sun City, Oro Valley development. Communication with Chris and his mother, Jane, was excellent-----Jane was so helpful during our stay. We highly recommend this home!

A perfect home away from home! We stayed for a week and enjoyed everything about this home. It looked like we walked into a new home - clean, spacious, and equipped with so many amenities for a stay this long. Every room (2 bedrooms, living room, kitchen) has a TV to give everyone some private time, if needed. The kitchen was spacious and equipped with everything to cook some meals at home. If you want to venture out though, the Keg Steakhouse is superb and within 5 minutes at a nearby mall. It is a safe community where I walked every morning watching some doing the same while others were biking or golfing as it appears this retirement community surrounds a golf course. The back of the house has a lovely porch area with a grill for outdoor cooking, if desired. Being from NH, the grapefruit trees in the back were a delight to see. Our neighbors graciously offered us some oranges one morning. Would we return? Absolutely as we enjoyed the house, community, location and attractions (Catalina State Park, Biosphere 2) within 5 and 15 minutes, respectively. The owners were great communicators throughout the process. This was my first Airbnb.

The home is very well decorated, beds are comfortable and for me it was like being home.

The hosts were very helpful and accommodating. We loved the home. Everything you could possibly need was there. It was immaculate, beautiful and comfortable. Would definitely recommend the host and the home. Hope to visit again!

This was a lovely and comfortable home. It is fully stocked with all the necessities you would need for an enjoyable stay. The neighborhood was quiet and easily assessible to everywhere we wanted to visit. Thank you for your kind hospitality.

The home was clean and well furnished especially the kitchen. There was nothing we needed. It was a nice quiet neighborhood and close to shops and activities we wanted to do. We felt very comfortable here.
